This is all rather irrelevant as the important bit is the binary object 
released under a proprietary licence.

The reason for the difference is that the win32 parts were written by a 
different author, and are also used by qvm86. The linux parts were written by 
Fabrice, so presumably are covered by the kqemu licence.
